The formulation shall consist of an emulsion of technical tebuconazole, complying with the requirements of FAO specification 494/TC/S/F (2000), in an aqueous phase together with suitable formulants. After gentle agitation the product shall be homogeneous and suitable for dilution in water.

In special cases, a test using CIPAC Standard Waters A and D before the heat stability test may be necessary. Alternatively, if the buyer requires other CIPAC Standard Waters to be used, than this shall be specified when ordering.

*These tests need only be carried out in case of doubt as to the emulsion stability result of the 2 hour test.

Persistent foam

Maximum: 25 mL after 1 min.

Storage stability

Stability at 0°C

After storage at 0 ± 2 °C for 7 days, the product shall comply with Wet sieve test. No separation of oily matter shall be visible after gentle agitation.
